plans That was his wl h he sailand I believe It will be carried out
Lost My Best FriendI have lost the best friend I ever
had declared Mr McClullan andthe best friend of every man here
Yes thats so said several of hislisteners Therell never be anotherboss like him
The belief here Is that the activemanagement of the Tower Bill im-
provement will devolve upon his old-
est daughter Mary Harriman hasalways been her fathers companionin his walks and drives about thestate The men say that in mentalmakeup she approaches her fathernearer than any of the other chil-
drenMrs Harriman it is said would be
glad to return to the old Harrimanfarm home at the foot of the hillwhich the family occupied when theyllrst came to Arden twentytwo yearsago In spite of all Its castled mag-
nificence Arden House to her willalways recall the last days of herhusband When the financier camethere on August 1M h was already ad log man
The house has not a cheerful asso-ciation The Harriman family hasshut itself up alone with its griefSuperintendent McClellan on theirbehalf asked the newspaper men atTurner to make no attempt to reachthe house He said that for a dayor two the dead mans nearest rela-
tives who are gathered at the Ardenhouse preferred to receive no visitors-of either condolence or business
The telegraph station at Arden hasbeen kept busy since Thursday after-noon receiving messages of sympathyfrom all vans of the world The tele-grams are being sent up the hill inbaskets with hundreds of letters thatbegan to pour In yesterday morningOne secretary at the house Is keptbusy opening and answering thesemessages
